To overcome the urge to seek, I began to realize that everything is already inside. From that I have asked to be who I have always wanted to be. Knowing now that all that happens in my reality is what I need. Being present is always the very best way. 🙏

This was such a beautiful exchange. The young man’s smile as he was receiving his teaching was lit from within.

Wanting and seeking are egoic modes. Even seeking God or Awakening is an obstacle to finding God. Just Be. Focus the intensity towards the present moment rather than a mental projection

I like that you say "just be". If we are an expression of god, by just being we stop looking outside and we might feel god directly.

When the mind is snared in waking consciousness, all it is aware of is whatever the five senses present - and that constantly changes, making focussing on the present moment either impossible or very difficult. You do have to transcend time, escape linear time. How? Only deep meditation will do that. ET has mentioned Turiya before. That opens up to the eternal where you will find what you are looking for.

“Be still and know that I AM God”

Almost 20 years of marriage now imploding, the woman I married two decades ago has been completely trapped by fear, contempt and bitterness, in her own mind. Fear of the future, perpetual defensiveness and a constant lamenting about the grievances of the past. Nothing ever gets resolved. Anything that gets added to the negative side of her mental ledger, never comes off. Nothing good in her life ever seems to matter and if it does, it isn't for long. Every time she recalls something that injured her ego, no matter how long ago it was, it's as if she is re-traumatized all over again. She puts on a false face for the rest of the world, which is how I ended up marrying her, but just under that facade is a truly miserable person. Nothing anyone can say or do will ever make a difference for her. She's completely trapped, inside her own ego, and steadily getting worse as she fades into mid-life, or old age, as it were. It's due to my living with her, trying to make things work and failing, then searching for answers, that I discovered Eckhart Tolle, Alan Watts, Shadguru and Ram Dass. I have cancer, I'm losing everything I've worked for, all my plans, hopes and aspirations. I'm losing my children, my home, essentially all of my property, and yet I owe my ex-wife a certain debt of gratitude. At least now, thanks to a change in perception, a shift in values, a stark realization or two - I have a chance to find real peace.

@@rainbowgirljules When I first heard Eckhart talk about "unconsciousness" it was an abject moment for me. Call it stark realization. As long as she lives, this woman I cared so much about for so long, can never be content. Not even for a moment. Just under the surface, turmoil, poor self image, anxiety, fear, regret, bitterness, frustration and anger and denial define her. She can't ever let go - Loveless and self-absorbed. What a terrible way to... do life. It's changed me because now I see it, but in the same breath, I feel terrible because there is nothing anyone can do for her. Not me, you, Jesus Christ or the Sargent Major. It's like standing helpless and watching someone drown in a foot of water, in a way. On the other hand, here's to what we can change - I raise my coffee - To your health, contentment and a bountiful life. ☕ Salud.

Wow. Sounds like she's as addicted to that ego identity as any drug addict. Very difficult for all involved, but at her core she is still the one universal consciousness simply choosing to have that experience in this lifetime. As I'm discovering for myself, our job is to accept the choices that others make for themselves and learn to release our fear and pity through detachment, trusting in the Divine path of ALL.

I started with assigning myself a "gratitude list" every evening, three things from the day. Big, ideas, resources, people, or small, like a cup of coffee, or IDing a new bird. After a few weeks I found myself looking for what I would write down, in my nightly list. I make it a minimum. Sometimes I will do a lovingkindness meditation.

The impression at this boys face made me remember the same face, full of satisfaction and joy, 25 years ago in my daughter's face, when she was 4 years old and I read a simple story from a children's book for her and she understood it. Her mind and soul were so satisfied that I saw the same face on her, full of gratitude and appreciation. I NEVER FORGET THAT MOMENT AND WILL TELL EVERYONE ABOUT IT AT HER WEDDING. Hopefully soon. You are AMAZING Meister, AMAZING. ❤

I appreciate Eckart's teachings because he seems to enjoy life, enjoy the moment. He has a sense of humour about things.

1:34 Everyone is seeking. Even egos are seeking to be true self and fulfilment. 4:11 You seek spiritual fulfilment. But you carry the mind structure of seeking, become a spiritual seeker. Seeking implies future, seeking in time, not in space. You cannot get it in the next moment, Realisation is present moment realisation. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Who you are does not require time. Everything else does. Being yourself is not stopped by time. Time stops you from realising yourself. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 You devalue this moment. Next moment is only a thought in your head. 7:20 Actuality and present moment are one. Don't impose any judgment on any form that arises this moment. It already is. You have already arrived. 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 You are the space for it. You are not what happened. You are not the thought or emotion. You are the formless space of consciousness for thought and emotion. That's the end of seeking. 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 9:30 Don't seek experience. You become aware of the background to all the experience, the space for all the experience. The stillness behind all experience that's covered up by mental noise. That's who you are. You become the opening.

Thanks for everything Eckhart., suffered a lot through not knowing there was a narrative, the mental narratives was not recognisable but the feelings were, pain. personalised unconscious behaviour in relationships as reflections of my worth. It was completely demoralising . I wish I found your teachings then but couldn’t see the wood from the trees. Your teachings have helped so much, my mother was a v unwell woman so seemed to go towards only what was known. Thank you for sharing all about the narrative and from that allowing the quite to be here now. I’m eternally grateful❤

Love from islamabad Pakistan

Your words soothed my struggle today. I was restling with the thoughts and emotions trying to be present , rise above them, accept them, surrender to them. Do all I have learnt but somehow was still struggling as they were here. I am the space for them. The being not the doing.The relief. Thank you so much Eckhart 🙏😊✨️

This reminds me of what Jiddu Krishnamurti would often try to point out, which is that seeing clearly is not a matter of inner psychological progress. It happens immediately, now.. there is not a progression or evolution.

Commented … and now I am just going back to actually listen to this. Ego got all in the way. 😂

Presence is like a stroboscopic setting. You know those spinning things that depending on your knob setting will seem to drift to the right, or to the left (thinking of an classic DJ turntable) and when the setting is right, the pattern is no longer drifting right or left but remains steady even though everything else is spinning.

All is ONE - there is not two! But to experience this what do you do? For years I’ve given this lots of thought I’ve listened to speakers, to what they’ve taught. Then something hit me, right in the face, It’s all to do with what we call space! The universe is infinite - goes on forever you see. Hubble and James Watt give us pictures for free. Those photos are magic and pull at the heart Gazing at them is where you should start. There’s planets and stars and galaxies and such But that’s only 5 percent - which isn’t that much. The rest we ignore, which is our big mistake, Because we’re missing 95% of the cake! We all want harmony, oneness and love - The secret’s around us, down here not above! Yes the truth is staring us right in the face To experience ONENESS include the space! So make this your mission - your daily goal And with a permanent smile you’ll truly feel WHOLE! It’s all in the oneness (love’s the same thing) Get it in your heart and it will sing! The truth is staring you right in the face To experience ONENESS include the space!

The present moment is all that is, perfect.

Regards, thank you.

Excellent Topic Professor Eckhart! In Avatar: season 2: episode 19: titled “ The Guru” , the illusion of separation is discussed. Water, Earth, Fire and Air are all connected. Are people essentially connected? This is ambiguous because everyone’s soul has a different genetic sequence. We have a disposition which has been formed through “ A Priori” & “ A Posteriori” expérience. This world is in constant strife and turmoil because people govern themselves in entirely different ways. Consequently, separation is no longer an illusion but a “ fact.”

I was told that as long as there is an "I" that seek/ want disseperation then there will be always separation. Because there is always a feeling that "I have achieved something, I succeeded" etc, so in essence still being seperated.

Indeed, its open eyes

What a question… was an instant pointer

Thank you very much 🫶

You accept, and then you realize you are the space. First, this "then" implies a future now, but not the present now. Second, even though one can try living in acceptance, it doesn't imply that awakening will happen immediately. It will happen sometime later-in a future now, if it happens at all.

Admiration

Great

thankyou

I love these. Going through some of these changes and listening to others trying to describe the same makes me want to laugh… I mean some of these gurus (especially the real ones that actually want freedom for all and not just manifestations of things for their followers) must want to laugh at least sometimes. They will most likely understand via their own experience but listening makes me see how silly we really can be. It’s hilarious… of course then I loose myself and I can end up back into well wishing for myself so no I cannot moque them.. but at laughing at them (which equals laughing at myself) feels appropriate.😅 it’s a way of actually letting go even for a moment. Like OMG I am still a child begging for satisfaction and so is this person. I get it.

"I am now seeking" There - I experienced my self in the now

The question Eckhart never addresses is this: who is making the choice between universal awareness and the separate self? The fact that there is a choice implies that there must be a third entity (decision maker) doesn't it?
